Mark & Ted...you guys are my heroes! :-)
I can confirm these results also.
I was starting to wonder how I could manipulate the file descriptors
directly
in Perl, after seeing it done in C examples. Though I did read somewhere
that as Ted said open() with ">&" or "<&" should call a dup2();
Well, the work around works, so I'm not complaining! :-)
Thanks for working this one out!
